Why is Doux Plaisir – Pumpkin and Kiri classified as ultra‑processed (NOVA 4) and what specific additives does it contain?

Although the label lists no commercial additives, the soup is made from rehydrated vegetables, pureed pumpkin, processed cheese, natural flavorings and a brick packaging, all of which involve industrial processing steps that meet the NOVA 4 definition of ultra‑processed foods.

How do the sugar and salt levels in this soup affect a diabetic or hypertensive diet?

With only 1.5 g of sugar per 100 ml, the soup is low‑sugar and can fit into a diabetic meal plan when portion size is controlled; its salt content of 0.65 g per 100 ml is lower than the typical soup average but still contributes to daily sodium intake, so hypertensive consumers should enjoy it in moderation.

Is this soup suitable for vegan, gluten‑free or keto diets?

The soup contains Kiri cheese (milk and cream) and skimmed milk powder, so it is not vegan; it also carries a precautionary statement for gluten traces, making it unsuitable for strict gluten‑free diets, and its carbohydrate content from vegetables and starch exceeds keto limits, thus it does not meet vegan, gluten‑free or keto criteria.
